Day at the Ranch

Today we went to the Oil Ranch for a few hours with our church. Mackenzie had fun blowing bubbles and "jumping" in her first bounce house.

She did ok with the petting zoo. That is until the baby goat starting coming toward her even as she backed away.

She liked eating hot dogs and cheese puffs. She liked running in the grass.

She liked the train. From a distance. We were sure that she would love the train - but we WERE WRONG! As Brandon tried to climb on board with her, she started crying and trying to climb out of his arms.

We tried the, "she'll get over it once we sit down" - but that didn't work.

We tried me holding her - but that didn't work.

We tried giving her some ice as a distraction - but that didn't work.

You know what finally worked? GETTING OFF THE TRAIN!!!! Yep, we got on the train and then we got off the train before it even moved an inch! Oh, well maybe next time!
